Here is what I remember of this old song.

And So It Goes
(Paul Overstreet; Don Schlitz)

A mansion on a hill is a lovely sight to see
But like any other house it's only temporary
Home is anywhere you choose to put your heart
If there's no love inside it will soon fall apart

Ashes to ashes, dust into dust
Buildings will crumble, bridges will rust
Mountains will disappear, rivers will dry on
And so it goes, with everything but love
So it goes, with everything but love, so it goes

You can drive around in a long limousine
If you don't know where you're going, it don't mean a thing
He would walk a mile just to hold an empty hand
He knows what it means to be a wealthy man

Ashes to ashes, dust into dust
Colossi will crumble, bridges will rust
Mountains will disappear, rivers will dry on
And so it goes, with everything but love
So it goes, with everything but love, so it goes

Wordly treasures will all pass away
There's just one thing that is put here to stay

Ashes to ashes, dust into dust
Kingdoms will crumble, bridges will rust
Mountains will disappear, rivers will dry on
And so it goes, with everything but love
So it goes, with everything but love
So it goes, with everything but love
So it goes, with everything, but love
